WOCO Conferences

The World Council of Service Clubs (WOCO) Conferences or AGMs were annual gatherings that brought together representatives from service-oriented organizations worldwide, including Round Table Associations. These conferences served as a platform for networking, leadership development, and the exchange of ideas to enhance community service efforts. Hosted in different countries each year, they facilitated international collaboration on philanthropic initiatives while strengthening bonds between member clubs. From 1961 to 1990, Round Table Associations were direct members of WOCO. From 1991 onwards, RTI AGMs were held in parallel with WOCO Conferences, until they transitioned into their own events, and into the RTI World Meetings we know today.
